TO CORRESPONDENTS. We found it impossible to supply the immense de mand which was last night made for the Golden Sun. And we, therefore, continue to-day the publication of yesterday's Paper. In addition to this, as we have announced, we shall commence to-morrow the publication of an extra Paper in Gold, with her Majesty's Portrait, giving an ample and complete account of the Coronation, which we SHALL KEEP ON SALE FOR SEVERAL WEEKS, in order to satisfy the immense demand. Those persons who wish to have it will please to order the " Coronation Sun.' Our office was last night lite - rally besieged, and we had the greatest diffieu!ty, by the help of the police, to get off our copies for the country. Our town friends we were compelled to disappoint for a few hours ; but we hope now to be able to answer all demands ; though the number of per sons employed, between two and three hundred, makes us unwilling, notwithstanding our deter mination to use our utmost exertions, to pledge ourselves. To our Foreign readers we must especially say that the regulation of our Post-office, which closes against Newspapers at six o'clock, prevented our agent from sending all his usual papers abroad. `We take the opportunity to enquire of Mr. La bouchere, and the other Commissioners who are engaged in reforming the Post-office, if any in convenience would arise from allowing Newspa pers to be received as late as letters ; for an hour, or even ten minutes, is, for us, some times of great importance. The Foreign Mail Du two nights of the week does not leave the me tropolis till midnight ; but the Journals, although our Second and Third Editions are not published sometimes till ten o'clock, must be put in the Post-office before six o'clock, or not go till the next day. Is there any necessity for continuing this old, and, we believe, now absurd regulation ? . ` SUN gffice, 112, Strand, London. WITH WHICH THE ii TRUE SUN" IS NOW INCORPORATED. LONDON: FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 29, 1838. Her MAJESTY, wo are happy to hear, bas not suffered any degree from the fatigues of yesterday. The great day of her MAJESTY'S Coronation passed off gloriously, in accordance with the wishes of her most de voted subjects. From the very earliest peep of yesterday's dawn, and even through the whole of the night, the streets were crowded with persons taking up their stations, and with carriages of all descriptions, carrying com pany to the places where they meant to view the pro cession or the ceremony. Till long after the break of this day were the streets never deserted by crowds of peo ple, and it does equal honour to the excellency of the ar rangements, and to the good conduct of the peop'e, that there was not through that long period, and amidst such countless and thronging multitudes, the least disturbance, nor more than the average number of accidents, when the same number of persons are pursuing their ordinary daily avocations. Never before in the world, perhaps, was such an immense mass of persons collected within such an area ; and never certainly was such a mass so completely orderly and well-behaved without any apparent coercion. Honour, say we, in the very first place, to the good-tempered, cheerful multitude, who seemed everywhere desirous of convincing the illustrious foreigners who graced the cere mony with their presence, that our liberty is not licentious ness, and that the silken cords oi love and affection are more effectual restraints than the iron bonds of a despotism. Honour in the next place to the Ministers, and to all the subordinate departments, for their wise foresight, pro viding for almost every possible occurrence, and leaving, aided as they were by the excellent temper of the people, nothing to chance. The length of the procession, the throwing open the Parks, enticing the multitude to srread themselves over the most beautiful public lawns in Europe, the dispersing them by free admissions into the various theatres and public places of amusement, the palpably intention of contributing to the enjoyment of the whole, nothing heing exclusive, all combined to mike yesterday one of the moat memorable days in the annals of a civilised people. The Government seemed, like the multitude, desirous of convincing our Illustrious Guests that it can he strong without being tyrannical, and that it can estabish and preserve beautiful and perfect order without being ap prehensive and jealous of the multitude. The proceed ings of yesterday must, we are sure, have impressed all the foreigners who witnessed them with a high idea, both of the great utility of our free Government, and of the excellent disposition of our free people. Of her MAJESTY, and of all those who took part in the ceremony, and of every portion of it, our descriptions are so ample that it would be trespassing on our readers to repeat I any part of them here. We shall content ourselves with saying that whether in the carriage, and acknowledg ing with kindly smiles and affable bows the loud and cordial greetings of the multitude—whether as she slowly entered the sacred temple where she was to plight her virgin vows to her people —or whether she was going through that solemn ceremony which hinds her to the nation—her MAJESTY was throughout composed and collected, judiciously suiting her conduct to the different circumstances, and showed herself " every inch a Queen." For a well trained, mature man, to go through all the ceremonies of Royalty with ease and dignity, excites general admiration ; but to see the sense of duty so strong in one so young, as never to permit her, through hours of tedious display to give way to one apparent sentiment of irksomeness or levity, is as extraordinary a part of the spectacle as the countless multitudes, agreeing to express the one single sentiment of unmingled admiration for one so young, and of herself so helpless. Strong, how ever in their strength, she might well feel assured and con fident astheir acclamations made the welkin ring with " Long live VICTORIA." We are sorry to see thet ceremony, which the public unanimity demonstrates to be completely national, alluded to by sorne of our Contemporaries in a party spirit. The princ'ples which placed the House of Brunswick on our throne, were prineiplea of exclusion, and of oppression t 9 large clisses of the people. They were.justified, however, by the circumstances of that age, and of this and of the surrounding countries. To act on these principles now would be to divide and to destroy the empire. Her Ma jesty is the first Sovereign of her line who has reigned over a united people, and she must imitate in spirit the conduct cf these wise statesmen to whom the House of Brunswick owes the possession of our throne ; and discarding, when necessary, all precedents, as they did, must adapt her con duct according to the circumstances and knowledge of this age, to promote the welfare of all her peop!e. The heavy rain which is now falling, and has been falling for some time (three o'clock), makes us regard the fine weather yesterday as Heaven's peculiar blessing on our young QUEEN. Next to the delight with which every loyal and gene rous-hearted Englishman witnessed yesterday the reception of our beloved QUEEN and her MOTHER, and of our illus trious warrior, the Duke of WELLINGTON, was that which beamed in every countenance where the veteran SOULT acknowledged the cheers with which the countless thousands along the whole line of procession welcomed him to this country. The people out of doors and the elite of the people in the Abbey greeted him with one accord. No French Marshal knows better than the Duke of DALMATIA how Britons can fight, and no French Marshal has had such proofs how generously they can forgive. The ill-timed aspersions cast upon him but increased the enthusiasm of the public, and the universal feeling which prevailed must have convinced him that it is alien to the feelings of Englishmen to treat with coldness, much less with insult,a brave enemy, who holds out the hand of friendship and peace. His reception at the Horse Guards was peculiarly enthusiastic, and the warmth with which he returned the compliment showed that he valued it, be cause it came from those who could judge of his merits. We have heard that the Duke of WELLINGTON has signi fied hi; disapprobation of the indecent attacks made on his illustrious rival ; but to those who know the Duke such a disclaimer was unnecessary. We have said in our Journal that Sir GEORGE MUR RAY was suspected to have written the article in the Quarterly Review, concerning Marshal SOULT ; and we owe it to that Gallant Officer to say, that we 'lave heard on good authority that Mr. CROKER had perpetrated that piece of bad taste. We bare heard, too, that the Duke of WELLINGTON was made aware of the intention of publishing it, awl requested that it might be postponed till after Marshal SOULT left the country, when every Englishman would have hailed it with gratitude. But the Ex-Orange Secretary could not curb his malice so long, and so he threw his stink-pot, which the cheers of the crowd yesterday must have convinced him exploded amongst his own friends, and has annoyed no person so much as himself. Though the Government for the present has withdrawn the two clauses in the Conveyance of Mails Bill, objected to by interested parties, little doubt exists that if the pre tensions put forward by some of tha proprietors be gene ra'ly adopted by the rest, some measure of a similar nature must be carried by the Legislature next Session. Certain of these proprietors have for the last few days been ringing the changes on spoliation and robbery, the rights of private property, the littleness of the CHANCELLOR of the Ex- CHEQUER, and the greatness of these undertakings, as if a railway was private property as much as personal or landed estates. It is an utter confusion of ideas to call a highway private property. In a few years all the great lines of roads throughout the country will consist of railways, and unless Parliament delegate to some impartial authority or other controul over them, the Army, the Post Office, the Government—every establishment, public or private—will to a frightful extent be at the mercy of a few Com panies. Before the construction of railroads, Government could transmit a dispatch through the Post-office at any time they judged convenient. We could send off an Ex press at any hour of the night ; but without some such con trolling power this must cease. The Government and pri vate individuals can send off communications only at stated perio3s, or when it suits the convenience of the Managers to grant a train—the consequence of which will he, great injustice and injury to private individuals, and great impe diment to the public business of the country. Suppose the majority of the Directors of some Company are hostile to the Government, a circumstance not at all unlikely, they may exert their powers of annoyance in fifty ways—they may exert them also against particular Companies, es, for instance, against the proprietors of a particular newspaper, and give the precedence, in case of some important news, to one in which they have an interest, to the incalculable injury of all the rest. We do not say this would often be done, but if the principle of private property, in the strict sense of the word, be sanctioned as regards Railways, this may be done with impunity, and the proprietors may say, like the Duke of NEWCASTLE, " have we not a right to do what we like with our own ?" The only safe way is to deprive them of the power—to place these great highways on the same footing as all other highways have ever been ; and allow them to be for the use of the public, on payment of reasonable charges, fixed by arbitration. This is neither spoliation nor robbery ; and if one of the clauses of the Bill can be said by some to involve a prin ciple amounting to this, so did the former Mail-coach Act, by which the trustees of roads were compelled, for the benefit of the public, to let the mails pass free of toll. We cannot see how it amounts to anything like injustice, or why, for the same reason, the same principle should not be acted on now. On looking, however, at the powers granted to the Directors of Railway Companies, even with the exceptions in favour of the public, we are convinced that a general Bill is required, which shall not only apply to the Post-office, but to the public in general. By the packet-ship George Washington, which arrived sil Liverpool yesterday, we have received United States' Journals to the 9th instant inclusive. A new Treasury Circular had made its a ppearance for the regulation of the money to be received in the payment of taxes, impo,ts all kinds, and the price of public lands. It attracted little or no attention, the prevalent impression being that the Banks had become too powerful to be any longer restricted or brow-beaten by the Presidential policy of the Adminis tration. Still the Share Market in Wall-street presented but a dull appearance, and Stock went off heavily on the 7th. Treasury Notes were at par, and United States Bank Share s at 121, but there was no activity in the Market. The Philadelphia and Baltimore Banks were preparing to re sume cash payments. The Earl of DURHAIt met with the most flattering re ception from the inhabitants of Quebec, who paid him all the honours that it was possible for them to bestow upon the Representative of a British SovntEta N. His Lord ship upon landing at once entered upon the high functions vested in him by her MAJESTY. The United States Government is making every effort, in co-operation with the British authorities in the Canadas, to discover and bring to justice the ruffians who burned the Sir Robert Peel steamer. Several individuals have been seized and imprisoned on suspicion. The Canadiins are exasperated, and if the following account be correct, there are ruffians among them ready to retaliate in kind the most atrocious villanies er. t e li" e , 4-rrr* 7,1) ip - yr - ANOTHER STEA M.BOAT OUTRAGE. Toe STEAMBOAT TELEGRAPH FIRED INTO BY A BODY OF ARMED MEN AT BROCKVILLE.—The Telegraph left Oswego at six o'clock on Saturday evening, June 2—touched at Prescott as usual, and reached Brockvill., about nine. Here she landed at the lower dock—took on board and left a number of passengers—received the visit of an unarmed mob, who ransacked the cabins, and otherwise evinced a turbulent dispo,ition. and was moving past the upper wharf, when she was hailed, and commanded to " come to." The Captain, supposing there were passengers in wait ing, stopped the engine, and dropped down to within 20 feet of the dock ; but, apprehensive that all was not right, he told the passengers to come on board in the small boat. But this would net satisfy the crowd, who insisted upon the boat's coming up to the dock. After a few words had passed, the Captain peremptorily refused to land, set the engine in motion, and moved off Immediately upon this, and while the boat was within a few feet of the wharf, about twenty muskets were fired, and four of the balls entered the ladies' cabin' One passed within a few inches of the chamber.maid, and two struck very near the Captain. In c,nnsequence of this outrage the American steamers hare refused to touch at any of the Canadian ports. Governor MaltcY is Q tho frontier taking measures for preventing the recurrence of acts which threaten to pro voke a war between two great and friendly nations. Mexico, NfilICR Qo.—The excitement here is very great owing to the blockade of our port by the French squadron. The Chamber of Deputies have been constantly in Session, discussing the ultimatum of the French Minister, and have indignantly rejected it. The resources of the Government are completely exhausted. It appears to be the general opinion among foreigners that there will be some compromise, or a revolution and change of Government, which will result in the Mexicans yielding to the demands of the French. The Paris Journals of Tuesday and Wednesday have all been received. Tuesday's Pagers announcc the rejec fx), by the Chamber of Peers, of the Five per Cents In terest Reduction Bill. The debate closed on Monday when a Ballot was demanded, and there appeared— For the Bill 34 Against it Majority against the Bill 5... —9O It was generally supposed that the opposition in the Chamber of Deputies would feel greatly irritated by the rejection of a measure of Finance, adopted by an over whelming majority of the RepresentAtive body. But few opportunities of mortifying the CAinct ..an be expected to occur during the present session, and as regards opinion out of doors, the Ministers ace sure of the warm support of the Parisian shopocracy. In the Moniteur of Wednesday, the elevation cf Baron TALLEyaAND, nephew of the deceased Prince, to the French Peerage, and the appointment of M. DE ST. PRIEST, as Am bassador to the Court of Denmark, are officially communicated. By an order of the Ministry of Don Carlos of the 10th inst. the in habitants of the province of Guipuscoa, Alava, Navarre, and Biscay, who have taken refuge in France, are to retire to their homes within forty days after the publication of this order, otherwise their property will be sold, and themselves banished fur ever from the kingdom.— Se/sane/lc des Pyrenees.

In the course of an unimportant debate in the Chamber of Deputies on the 18th, some angry words were bandied among the Count de Dag NAVAS, the Marquis de SOMENIELOS, end M. OLIvARI, which were expected to lead to a duel, if not to more than one. Count ToftENo departed on the 18th for Paris, to ne gociate a new loan. The ex-Minister will be very sure not to overlook . his own interests in the course of this transaction. No man in Spain understands better than TORENO to the promotion of Low many private interests loan negociations may lead. We have no ❑ews of any interest from the North of Spain. The Brussels and German Papers received this morn ing, contain no news of any interest. If credit may be attached to the statement contained in the following ex tract from a letter from Bucharest, our Noble Foreign Secretary will shortly have business on his hands, that Europe will not suffer to be adjusted as tamely as the Vixen affair : Extract of a later from Bucharest (Wallachia), under date June 4 :—" We learn, from a source entitl ,1 to credit, that Count Woron zow, Governor-General of Lesser Russia, is corning into the two prin. cipalities and Servia, charged with a secret mission to persuade the Boyards, iloldavians, and Wallachians, to ask t o h ave th e i r coun tries incorporated with Russia, and to get rid of P r i n ce Mil ose h from Servia, and the agents of England, who have long exercised a potent influence, as well over this Prince as the Servia nation. The perfidious designs of Russia, with regard to the two principalities, are man i festo I by the arming of a fleet in the Danube, and by the fortifi. cation of the island of Sulina, situated at the mouth of that river—a measure which would render the Russians absolute masters of all com munication with the Black Sea Prince Alexander Ghyka, our hasp°_ der, brought up in Germany, and attach; (I, I.y the ties of personal friendship, to the reigning family of Austria, sought the support of the Cabinet of Vienna to counterbalance the dangerous supremacy of the Czar, but the teplies of 31. de Metternich have extinguished his hopes of obtaining support from that quarter. We believe our only hope of safety depends rn England ; for your Cabinet, and that of Austria, are considered here as yielding to the wishes of Nicholas, or, at least, ready to sanction all tha encroachments of the Czar provided he wili leave them quiet."

(THIS EVENING.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. There being only nineteen Members present at Four o'Clock, the llouie adjourned till to-morrow. HOUSE OF LORDS. The Lord CHANCELLOR took his scat on the Woolsack at Four o'Clock, when the Marquis of Normanby (Earl Mu!grave) was introduced by the Marquisses of Bredathane and Westminster, and took the oath and his seat on hi, elevation to the Marqui.ate Lord 15 1.7 %I ti - litie3 Bill. The Bishop of EXETER presented several petitions against the New Poor Law Bill ; the present system of Irish education, and the grant to Maynooth. The Duke of RUTLAND presented a petition from a place in Rut . land in favour of the New Poor Law Bill. From the experience be had had of the operation of the law he could bear his testimony to its working well. Lord BROUGHAM felt gratified at the statement of the Noble Duke. Nothing could be more satisfactory than to hear such statements from such a quarter, and he was gratified that the Noble Duke had so manfully despised the petty attacks made upon all who supported the present law. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE begged also to thank the Noble Duke for the expression he had given to the satisfactory working of to beneficial a measure. The Party Processions (Ireland) Bill was read a second time, and ordered to he committed. Lord DENMAN brought in the Oaths Validity Bill. The object of the Bill was to substitute declarations for oaths in all judicial prcce d. ings. The Noble and Learned Lord proposed that the second reading should take place on Thursday next. The Earl of WICKLOW saw very little difference between this Bill and that introduced by the Noble and Learned Lord in the last sessicn. lie, therefore, felt bound to give his opposition to the Bill. Lord BROUGHAM trusted that Noble Lords would give their best attention to the measure, as its object was to remedy a grievance which all connected with the administration of the law complained of.

In merchandise to.day nothing done either by public sale or private contract of the slightest importance. In fact there has not bean a si,- gie save. Business will not be resumed until Monday, when the "Tea sales commence. For next week there is considerable business of different kinds of produce and merchandise advertised. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Jurcr The sales of this day amount altogether to 2,000 bags.

The inspection of the Parks, this day, has demon • stralcd that no injury whatever was yesterday done to them, or in them. This will be an additional argument for opening all public places to the people : _ _ _ William Cotton, Esq., is the Gentleman recom mended by the Court of Directors of the Bank of EnghrO, to fill up the vnent:cy in the Direction, cccdaioned by the due; a-e of William Mellish, Esq.

The City Unions acted with becoming liberality yesterday, the inmates being regaled, and the out-of-door paupers re ceived in money firms Is. to 3s. extra allowance. On the Btll of this month, in the morning, the newly erected Church steeple of Erdruanedorft, 110 feet high, fell down.

We understand that the Clergy of the Established Church in Leith have resolved to hold a meeting in South Leith Church, on the forenoon of Thursday next, at eleven o'clock, for the purpose of °tiering up prayer, to Almighty God for a prosperous reign to our youth ful Sovereign.—Edinburgh Courant. THE AYRSIIIIIE HERMIT.—Thomas Revburn, the eccentric individual distinguished by this title, is well known itt the West of Scotland, and many in this city are no doubt aware of his cha racter and history. He is "laird" of llolmhead—a few acres of land and a cottage, so called—delightfully situated on the banks of the Irvine, not far from Kilmarnock. This pleasant little possession he inherited front his grandfather. Shortly after his succession, he was involved in a lawsuit with a neighbouring proprietor, respecting a by-roA of which the latter claimed the privilege through the property of Holmhead. Believing himself to have been deeply wronged In the dee:si in of his cause, and excited by the heavy amount of expenses to which he was change the dress h e then wore, until justice should be obtained. This, according to his view, has never been awarded him ; and throughout the lapse of twenty years he has religiously adhered to his resolution. We notice this singular character at present, in order to express our astonishment at observing him the other night in rrinces%street. Ile had just arrived by the Ayr coach, with the intention, as we understood, of proceeding next day to London, to witness the Coronation of the Queen. What could stimulate the here - it, now well advanced in years, to think of a journey so full of peril to a person of his description without friend or introduction, is a question more likely to be suggested than easily solved; but the doubtful prospect of the undertaking seems at last to have seriously occurred to the individual himself, for, on learning the vast 2r:umbers expected to crowd the steam-vessels, he yielded to judicious advice, and prudently abandoning the prosecution of his jour ney, has already, we understand, returned to the West country. His chief object, we believe, was to gain an audience of the Queen. — Scotsman. THE NASSAU BALLOON.—The Nassau Balloon, which ascended for the first time this season on Monday, from Vaux hall gardens, descended at nine o'clock its Denham Court, Bucks, two mres beyond Uxbridge. Mr. Green, who made on the occasion his 250th ascent, being his " fifth jubilee," describes the voyage as the most delightful be ever experienced. The " voyagers" passed over Hyde-park, Kensington-gardens, and the Birmingham railroad. The latter was an obj:ct of much curiosity, being viewed for the first time from a great height. The other railroads were seen, but appeared en tangled. The greatest elevation was 11,500 feet, being upwards of two miles. The booths in Hyde-park presented a singular appearance. When over Uxbridge Colonel Bruce, who was drilling some recruits, ordered them to fire. Mr. Green observed the flash, but the sound slid net reach the balloon until thirty seconds after the discharge. The de scent was made adjoining the mansion of Sir W. Ellis, the late resi dence of Lucien Buonaparte. The " vol agers" were entertained in a handsome manrser by Sir William and Isis Lady; and, after an inter. view with Colonel Bruce, who inform( d them of the circumstance men. tioned, the party came to town in a post-chaise. A band of ruffians, in number about nine, a few days ago, made a daring attack on the house of two highly respectable maiden ladies, of the name of Bailie, who reside on Lougligur, near Bruff. They were in no way disguised, but entered the house in the most determined manner, between the hours of nine and ten o'clock, when it was yet day_light. Each man was aimed with a pistol or blud geon, and upon entering the house they demanded a gentleman of the name of Hatchell to be given up to them, as they were determined to have his life; upon which one of the ringleaders laid hold of one of the old ladies, and, holding a pistol to her head, swore to shoot her if she gave any alarm, but if she kept quiet, nothing would be shone to her, as it was only Hatchell they wanted. Whilst one cot:Chile(' holding this lady, the remainder of the gang proceeded to search the house, breaking open the doors in search of thyir prey, who, fortunately for himself, happened to have gone that day to the country. They how ever took three stand of arms and two swords from the house, and left, swearing to have Mr. Mitchell's life.—Limerick Chronicle. Yesterday morning the thieves of high and low 'de gree, that is to say, from the swell mob man to the "nailer" of pocket handkerchiefs, were in a state of activity, anticipating A splendid harvest from " drawing" pocket books, watches, and purses of her Majesty's loyal subjects, attracted by curiosity to witness the highly interesting gorgeous pageant of a Coronation procession. There was a strong !ous ter of country thieves, as well as a liberal dispersion of London practi tioners in the same line. A gentleman named Elwin Fortwa, living in the Temple, was endeavouring to make his way through the crowd, nearly opposite Trafalgar-square, when three well-dressed fellows M tempted his progress, and succeeded m robbing him of his purse, dex terously cutting his trousers through to obtain it. The purse con tained eighteen sovereigns, and seven or eight shillings. An elderly lady, named Witton, living in Cecil•street, Strand, while standing at the corner of that street, was hustled by some fellows, who robbed her of a valuable gold watch. A pocket-book was taken front the coat pocketof a gentleman, nearly opposite Northumberland House, and he seized th e thief, but some other thieves rescued him ; the fellow got off with his booty, which the gentleman stated contained Bank of England notes to a very considerable amount. The police used the utmost vigilance to prevent depredations, but as might be expected, numerous robberies took place. A great number of pickpockets were captured, and placed in the various station-houses. --- ---In Lon g -l ane , Smith eld, the foltov;iiig inscri'iOfl is to be seen over the s h o p -w i n d ow of a . • r l! ;Mirky'En Coker Nuts." is to L fleld N , l th A e l f l o C llov i .

The river between London and Westminster bridges presented a busy appearance, from the great number passing up and down during the day in the steamers, which were crowded to excess with pass engers. Not less than 5,000 persons were taken up and down the stream during the day, and the steam boat Companies, as well as the omnibus proprietors, reaped a good harvest. At night fireworks were going off upon the river in a ll di rect i ons. A rival to rail -road s is in progress, and is announced to commence operations within a month. A Company, it is said, have succeeded in bringing a steam-carriage to great perfection, which will travel on the common roads, and is said to be free from the liability to accident which exists in railway carriages ; 'whilst equal speed can tl* attained, .. _ IX well conductod system of steam navigation is now permanently established on the Seine between St. Germain and Itouen. Two rival companies, it appears, are competing with the lightness of their vessels, and the rapidity of their motion, and it only requires cer tain improvements to be made in the bed and windings of the river, so that six feet of water Might be insured throughout the whole of its course, a nd several long circuits cut short, to allow of the traject between the strove mentioned places being made in 10 hours, if a railroad Were carried as far as Poissy. Some of the steamers usod on thisline, when th e y have their full compliment of passetiiezi, on board, do not draw more than two f , et water. :L.: rate of travelling by this method can, no doubt,_ nevec eqoal that of the railroad about to be con s truct e d 1 - ,oy.,en and Havre ; hat for travellers who prefer interesting scewy to rapidity of motion, few rivers in Fraoie have higher c.;a4;14 is atten. tion than the SeM ; all the way from Nic'ii , r;, 4 Havre, along the whole of which line traveller; Acota pass by steam-boats, and in r t. by the S~ , lN4lAip railroad, , - COURT CIRCULAR. The Royal procession was formed in the order of the official programme at ten o'clock. At ten minutes past ten o'clock the Queen, leaning on the m of the Marquis of Codyng.ham, left the state rooms, pre ceded by tha Hon. C‘ilonel Cavendish, clerk marshal, the Earl of Albemarle, G.C. H., master of the horse, and the lion. C. A. Murray, master of the household, and followed. by the Duchess of Sutherland, mistress of the robes. Her Ma jesty's train was supported by Chsrles Ellice, George H. Cavendish, and James Charles M. C;> ell, Esqrs., the pages of honour in waiting. The yeomen of the guard who lined the marble hall appeared in their new uniforn.s. Mr Majesty was handed into the state coach by the Honourable Colonel Cavendish, the clerk marshal, a signal is as given by Lieutenant Jay, of the royal navy who was in attendance at the grand portico. The royal standard was irnmsdistely hoisted on the marble arch, and a royal salute fired by the artillery in the inelosure of St. James's-park, the 'band of the Queen's guard (3d Feet Guards) plying " God save the Queeo." The Peers and Peeresses in the Queen's carriages wore their robes and carried their coronets; the other ladies of the household were in full Court dresses, and the officers of the household in their respective uniforms. Viscount Coml:ermere, who rode on one side of the Queen's carriage, wore the ribbon of the Order of the Bath over his coir,ss, and carried his gold stick of office. The Duke of Buccleuch, who rode directly after the State coach, wore the collar and star of the Order of the Garter. His Grace was mounted on a splendidly caparisoned charger, and carried his gold stick of office as Captain-General of the Royal &moist' Arches. Oa the right of his Grace ro:lo Colonel Richardson, Silver Sick in Waiting, end on the left the Field Officer in Waiting. The Queen's carriages were arranged under the diretction of Colonel Buckley, Equerry to her Majesty, assisted by Mr. Spearman. The following were invited to the Royal dinner party last eve::ing:—Their Serene Highnesses the Princess ilohenlohe, the Duke of Saxe Cobourg, and tha Prince c.f Leiningen; the Marquis of Conyngham, Earl of Surrey, Viscount Mel bourne, Baroness Speth, Count Kolow•rath, Baron Alvensle ben, and Baron de Brandenstien. THE CORONATION SUN" IN GOLD. Tux CORONATION " SUN."—If the actual Sun be as bright during to-day as the m e taph or i ca l " S UN, " at which we have been favoured %,ith a peep, there will be no grumbling about the weather. But Vt . C must nut be metaphorical too, and we will therefore say at once that The Sun Newspaper of this Evening is to be quite unique. It is to contain an Account of the Ceremonial of the Coronation, and to be Printed in Letters of Gold. The thought is new, the execution very beautiful, and both are exceedingly creditable to the taste and enter prise of the Conductors of the Paper.—.3loriging Post. Tits " SUN" NEW,',PAPER —This Journal will appear to-day printed throughout in Gold Characters, and with a Portrait of her Majesty also in Gold. This is a very striking novelty, exhibiting great beauty and elegance, and as creditable to the spirited Conductors of this Journal Ls it is appropriate to the occasion.—/Iforning Chronicle. Tint "SUN" NEWSPAPER.--Amongst the various modes which the ingenuity of the people has devised for displaying their high respect for the loyal and constitutional ceremony which t .kes place to-day—and to commemorate that auspicious event in a characteristic manner—our Contemporary has not only announced his intention of printing " the whole account of the Coronation," accompanied with a likeness of her Majesty " in Gold," but has actually circulated a specimen of his auri ferous printing (without the likeness of her Majesty) ; it has a very novel and handsome appearance, the quality of the paper, in this specimen, being cf a much finer description than that w hick is generally used in the daily journals; but this is necesslry, for it requires a good texture to bear out the gold end preserve its native lustre. This specimen is very carefully executed; front its appearance, we are led to suppose that when complete, it will be a very pleasing work of art.-- Moreing Harald, DOVER-THURSDAY. (FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.) The Ccronation of her Majesty has been kept here w ith every feeling of attachment and l o y a lty. Th e s h ops and publ i c offices have been closed since the morning ; and at noon the depot of the 43d regiment, under the command of Major For. long, and that of the 69th regiment, under Major Brookes, assembled on the Marine Parade, where they were me t by Colonel Munro, R. A. ; Li eu t.-Colonel Thomson, Royal En gineers; and the other officers of the Garrison. Royal Sa• lutes were fired by the Artillery from the western heights; and feu de joi by the troops, who afterwards presented arms, and were marched to their respeetve quarters. As soon as the troop; had quitted the Parade, the children of the different charity schools in the town were marched in by their teachers to tables that bad been provided for them; and about 2 500 children were hospitably entertained with cold beef, plumb pudding, &c. The tables were placed la two lines, the whole length of the Parade, and the admirable arrangement reflects the highest credit on the Comroittee. Unfortunately', before the children had finished their dinner, it began to rain, and continued without intermission during the afternoon, thereby preventing further amusement that had been provided by the Committee in a field near the town for the remainde r of the day. It was a very interesting sight. b at i l l ( r i ri t e h , e dr ef k hu th sir b ti o c ai of spectators. ref "- th — ei t rlov'e l Teig`'n k; , l 4i f i n nl n nbniy a i:r . :tify" . - C There is tl be a ball this evening in honour of the Goro ration, which is expected tJ ba very well attended.
